FOREWORD 


Before me is the foreword written by John H. Finley for the 
1919 edition of the Elementary School Book List. What a wealth 
of beauty and understanding found expression in these two 
paragraphs: 

Moreover, into what a wonderland the schoolhouse and grounds 
may be expanded, no matter how small or physically unattractive, 
through the magic of books; they have the power to bring all the 
world about the schoolhouse windows, and to summon the great 
of all ages to sit within the schoolhouse walls. 

[ do not speak out of the imagination of maturity, in saying this, 
but out of the memory of a boyhood in which books, though they 
were few in number, brought the history and romance of the world 
into that little flat bit of prairie around the schoolhouse. 


So long as books are read by the Americar. school children, these 
thoughts from the pen of our beloved Finley deserve a place in the 
hearts of teachers and librarians. 

For me, a certain one-room school would have been a dull place 
indeed, during my later stay in it, had it not been for twenty or 
thirty well-chosen books. How I revelled in Plutarch’s Lives and 
The Life of Washington! How vividly I recall The Lady of The 
Lake and The Lay of The Last Minstrel. Then, there was a book 
that led me out under the stars at night; the books that drew me 
into the fields and along our prairie streams, seeing where I had not 
seen; the books that carried me back into the stories of old England; 
and those other books, which, looking back through the years, I see 
only as dim memories, but which contributed their quota to an eager 
little mind seeking a way out from the narrow world that bound him. 

Nor am I altogether certain that narrowness of horizon is limited 
to.children in the rural schools of the prairie states. Everywhere 
children are seeking the romance, the history, the knowledge of life, 
that carries them beyond the present, out of their own limited 
realities. To satisfy this inarticulate longing of childhood, the con- 
tributions of hundreds of people have been sifted and weighed by 
the School Libraries section. Back of their search and selection 
lies the work of thousands of’ teachers who have experimented with 
these readings and have found them good in their teaching of 
children. We send this revision of the Elementary School Book 
List to the elementary school teachers of the State of New York 
with the hope that it may help them lead children out into the broader 
realms of the world’s loveliness:

LIST OF BOOKS FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL 
LIBRARIES 


Eamon Ole 7) Lite Bio R Va Neer bee SCE OG 


Book Selection and Ordering 


This list is a revision of the one published for elementary school 
libraries in 1919. It has been prepared in cooperation with the 
various supervisors of the Department and aims to provide material 
to supplement all subjects in the syllabuses. In addition, many books 
of general reading are included. A number of the newer books are 
given, but no school library can afford to buy the new publications 
until it has a basic collection of standard books for children. The 
library should not only furnish supplementary reference material. 
It must create a taste for reading and improve standards of taste. 
Even small collections should contain books about a variety of 
subjects. 

Books should be ordered from one of the large book dealers unless 
the local dealer can give as good a discount. Every room should 
have a few new books each year. Otherwise the whole library 
deteriorates and becomes unattractive. Application for state aid 
should be made before purchase, if duplication is to be assured. 


Use of the Library 


When there is no school librarian the entire responsibility for 
educating the children in the use and appreciation of books in the 
library rests with the teacher. It is necessary that she know the 
books as she does the children. Reading aloud, story telling, book 
talks, reading for the state testimonial are all methods to be employed 
in bringing books and children together. 


[3] 


Reading for the State Testimonial 


Any child completing fifty books on the approved list before being 
eraduated from the eighth grade is entitled to a state testimonial 
of reading. It is recommended that at least one book from. each 
group be included in the fifty, with the exception of amusements, 
special days and home economics, the last being acceptable for girls 
but not for boys. Yearly records should be kept. It is desirable to 
keep this reading course in mind when ordering books, and to begin 
in the early grades to interest children in the idea. 


Instruction in the Use of the Library 


The use of the library should be taught from the first grade. The 
care of books, clean hands, wrapping books on rainy days, the parts 
of a book with the use of the index and table of contents, and the 
use of the dictionary and encyclopedia can be given in even the 
smaller schools. 


Mending and Binding 


Books which are to receive hard usage should be ordered in 
resewed bindings. Expensive books should be sent for rebinding 
before they are too badly worn. Mending must be done early, if it 
is to be effective, but no book should be held together by mending 
tape, and circulated long after its condition calls for discarding. 
Each year all books which are worn out or have outlived their useful- 
ness should be withdrawn. 


Records 


The accession book is a numbered list of all books as they are 
added to the library. The number assigned is placed in the book 
and when the book is lost or discarded the number can easily be 
checked off. This means that at all times an accurate list of books 
actually in the library is available. 

The simplest way to issue books is by means of deposit station 
cards which may be purchased from library supply houses very 
reasonably. Space is provided for author and title of a book and 
for the borrowers’ names. These cards are filed alphabetically by 
author, and may be fastened together with cord or rings to prevent 
loss. New cards may be inserted at any time and those for discarded 


books withdrawn. 
Traveling Libraries 


Traveling libraries may be obtained from the Library Extension 
Division in Albany. These should be used to supplement inadequate 


[6] 


collections, planning at the same time to make regular purchases 
which will obviate the need. 


Use of this List in Supplementing the List in the Syllabus 

The elementary syllabus in English language and literature states, 
“Each teacher should feel free to choose other selections not sug- 
gested in the following list, especially if that choice is made from 
lists issued by the New York State Library or by the School 
Libraries Section.” 


CLASSIFICATION 


Class numbers are assigned to the various groups of books in the 
table of contents, but it is not necessary to classify books until there 
are more than 100 in the collection. If there is a larger number, 
it is an advantage to arrange by class number in order that all the 
books on any subject may be found together. 


[7] 


A LIST OF BOOKS TO BE CONSIDERED FOR FIRST 
PURCHASE FOR TRAINING CLASSES, ELEMEN- 
TARY SCHOOLS AND URURAIM SCH OCS 


An effort has been made to include some of those titles which 
_ should be familiar to every grown-up. If he has not read these at 
the proper time he has missed a joy to which he was entitled. These 
are books which belong primarily to the elementary grades and every 
teacher must have read them if she is to recommend them con- 
vincingly to others. | 


In some instances two editions are given. If strict economy is 
necessary, the cheaper may be chosen, but any collection should con- 
tain a few choice editions and it is desirable to have examples of 
the work of various illustrators. Reinforced bindings are slightly 
more expensive but wear much longer. 


The grades are given, but children should not be confined to this 
grading because of their varying ability.
